Toyota Yaris history and evolution
The Toyota Yaris was introduced in 2007 as Toyota's entry-level vehicle, replacing the Toyota Echo. Available as a three-door hatchback or four-door sedan, early models of this affordable compact are fairly basic but fun to drive. In 2009, a five-door hatchback Toyota Yaris debuted, and new safety features included anti-lock brakes and side curtain airbags. A full redesign in 2012 provided the Toyota Yaris with a sportier look and increased cargo space. Touchscreen infotainment systems with Bluetooth connectivity debuted in 2015, and Toyota added a suite of driver safety technologies in 2017. These included lane-departure and pre-collision warnings. For its final two production years, the Toyota Yaris was actually built by Mazda based on their Mazda 2.
